Hotel Hampton Inn and Suites Houston Central (Houston, USA)

The hotel gives a great overall presentation. The staff is pleasant, polite, and gives great customer service. Breakfast is hot and well-stocked.

The amenities here give a lot of choice for those looking for recreation, from walking trails to fitness centers. These features are better than standard at any hotel, from budget to luxury. The location is also central to downtown Houston which offers countless avenues of fun.

The rooms here seem new. They are spacious, nicely decorated, and well-maintained. The housekeeping staff keeps everything in working order and sparkling. The fast WiFi is another bonus in every room.

The location of the property is awkward and challenging. It is hard to find and hard to get to once you leave the interstate. The shared parking lot with a restaurant also makes the lobby difficult to pinpoint.

There is a noise level that exists here and that can be heard in the guest rooms, day and night. Since the hotel is located right off a busy interstate, that truck and road noise can be distracting for lighter sleepers. Behind the hotel is a rail track and trains do run through at all hours. This can also be heard in the rooms. While you can ask for a room away from the noise, the hotel is centered in a busy city location and total quiet might be hard to achieve.

The parking lot and immediate area around the hotel seems unsafe. There are several reports of vandalism and theft when cars are broken into during the overnight areas. Even though the area is gated and locked at night, guests should remove all belongings during this time.
